iMedia FlipTop Computer Center Crestron IM-FTCC-B
Applications
The IM-FTCC-B/IMI-FTCC-B is part of the Crestron
®
iMedia line of network
devices, room control systems and signal routing solutions. The line of IM
devices includes receivers and transmitters. Consult the Crestron website for a
complete and current listing of the iMedia product line.
NOTE: Composite video output of the IM-RXV1 and IM-RXV3 will not be
displayed when using the IM-FTCC-B/IMI-FTCC-B.
The iMedia FlipTop Computer Center is designed to install flush in a tabletop
surface to provide a convenient and low profile interface solution. Beneath the
flip-top lid, a recessed compartment contains easy pull-out RGB and audio
cables to facilitate the connection of a single computer source. The cables stow
neatly within the compartment when not in use. Excess cable simply drops out-
of-sight below the box through grommeted holes provided in the bottom plate.
An additional hole is available to accommodate a third-party LAN cable if
needed. A cutout template is included.
NOTE: The IM-FTCC-B and IMI-FTCC-B are not Cresnet
®
devices.
This device uses iMedia (IM) technology utilizing a single CresCAT-IM cable
to transmit computer RGB and stereo audio signals to a single projector or
plasma display. A typical XGA signal (1024 X 768 pixels at 60 Hz) can be
transmitted up to 84 feet using iMedia, while higher resolutions up to
1600 x 1200 can be handled over shorter distances. Audio is transmitted
digitally at 20-bit, 48 kHz resolution. To facilitate connection of audio, video,
and computer equipment, all media, power and control signals are routed via a
single CresCAT-IM cable for an uncomplicated installation.
The IM-FCC-B is part of a family of compatible iMedia devices, all capable of
working together to put on simple to complex media presentations. The
following diagram shows the interconnections.

As of the date of manufacture, the IM-FTCC-B/IMI-FTCC-B has been tested
and found to comply with specifications for CE marking and standards per EMC
and Radiocommunications Compliance Labelling.
NOTE: This device complies with part 15 of the FCC rules. Operation is subject
to the following two conditions: (1) this device may not cause harmful
interference, and (2) this device must accept any interference received, including
interference that may cause undesired operation.
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class
B digital device, pursuant to part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed
to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential
installation. This equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency
energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may
cause harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is no
guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this
equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception,
which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is
encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following
measures:
Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.

Setup
Network Wiring
CAUTION: In order to ensure optimum performance over the full range of your
installation topology, Crestron Certified Wire, and only Crestron Certified Wire,
should be used. Failure to do so, may incur additional charges if support is
required to identify performance deficiencies as a result of using improper wire.
CAUTION: Use only Crestron power supplies for Crestron equipment. Failure
to do so could cause equipment damage or void the Crestron warranty.
IM Wiring
Using a proprietary signal routing solution, RGBHV, audio, power and control
signals are all transported using a single cable solution called iMedia.
The iMedia transport system port is capable of managing computer RGB and
audio signals simultaneously through one CresCAT-IM cable, simplifying
installations.
Routing CresCAT-IM cable (low-skew CAT5e) is less expensive and a much
simpler solution for the wiring of iMedia systems than routing multi-colored, multi-
conductor coax cable. All Crestron products using the iMedia transport system are
capable of sending and receiving iMedia signals via CresCAT-IM cable. Installation
of any iMedia device is as simple as installing one iMedia cable from output to
input. Installations are affordable, and fast.
Quantity and Packaging
CRESCAT-IM-P-B500 is a low-skew CAT5e cable, plenum-rated,
available in a 500 ft box
CRESCAT-IM-P-SP500is a low-skew CAT5e cable, plenum-rated,
available in a 500 ft spool
CRESCAT-IM-P-SP1000 is a low-skew CAT5e cable, plenum-rated,
available is a 1000 ft spool
For more information on CresCAT and other wire products, visit the Crestron
website (www.crestron.com/features/wire).
Pin Assignments
The pin assignment is based on the EIA/TIA 568B RJ-45 Jack standard.
Power is supplied to the IM transmitters via the audio circuit.
To determine which pin is number 1, hold the cable so that the end of the eight
pin modular jack is facing you, with clip down and copper side up. When
looking down at the copper connections, pin 1 is on the far right.

RGB & Audio
NOTE: Power is supplied to pins 4 and 5 from the IM receivers.
Signal Selection
The RGB signal connected to the IM transmitter is delivered to the display
device (e.g., projector) via the RGBHV output of an IM receiver. Each IM
transmitter possesses a SELECT button, which activates that input. The receiver
automatically routes the last activated input to the RGB output and deactivates
any prior selection. In addition, the display's power and input selection
commands can be controlled via the IR or COM port.
Video Resolution and Cable Length
The receiver can accomplish frequency compensation on each input to achieve
correct operation. This compensation scheme is effective for CresCAT-IM
cables as long as the maximum skew of 15 ns per 100 m is not exceeded.
NOTE: For proper operations and performance of every iMedia system, always
use CresCAT-IM cable.
